Beautiful Oops!

by Barney Saltzberg

This award-winning, bestselling, one-of-a-kind interactive book (with over 650,000 copies sold!), shows young readers how every mistake is an opportunity to make something beautiful.



A spill. A smear. A smudge. A tear. When you think you have made a mistake, think of it as an opportunity to make something beautiful! A life lesson that all parents want their children to embrace: It's okay to make a mistake. In fact, hooray for mistakes!



A mistake is an adventure in creativity, a portal to discovery. A spill doesn't ruin a drawing--not when it becomes the shape of a goofy animal. And an accidental tear in your paper? No need to be upset when you can turn it into the roaring mouth of an alligator. A paint smudge becomes the face of a bunny, a crumpled ball of paper turns into a lamb's fleecy coat--celebrate the oops in life.



A singular work of imagination, creativity, and paper engineering, Beautiful Oops! is filled with pop-ups, lift-the-flaps, tears, holes, overlays, bends, smudges, and even an accordion "telescope"--each demonstrating the magical transformation from blunder to wonder.
